Re: Hazrat Isa A.S.
a) christian belief that he went to heavens bodily alive, whereas jews claim they put him to death. Quran refuses both this. Quran challenges christian belief by telling them that He did not go up to heavens alive, but rather God raised his soul (gave him death). Jews claim is also refuted by Quran that it was not them who killed him nor crucified him.
b) Jesus(as) was put on cross but not crucified by Jews and was not killed by them. Quran says every prophet was humiliated by non believers. All were mocked at. Muhammad PBUH was humiliated by the people of quraish. So were other prophets at every stage when Allah sent them. Jesus is no exception. He was being hurt by jews. The process of him going through all the humiliation and still remained steadfast in the way of Allah is why Allah raised his status.
c) Poor analogy. Quran does not confirm his ascension in the first place. Hadith does say he will descend but, no where does it say descend as in bodily alive. Allah use the word descend when he creates or bring forth something on earth. Mann o salwa is one thing i could think of from the top of my head. Messengers are also descended from heaven. It merely means.. from Allah. Not bodily descend.
d) the word tawaffee can very well be used in favor of his death. I presented you various verses in which it means ‘taken ones soul’, death. You’re confusing yourself.
e). Ahl e sunnah or whoever. Whats wrong is wrong. You believe in ahl e sunnah, whereas I believe in what Quran and hadith teaches me. Whichever aqeedah is wrong from the view point of Quran, is not to be believed in. Plain and simple.
f) You dont know when the day of judgement is to come. If i were to tell you that Zaid will marry twice before he dies. Does it mean he will die right after he marries someone else , or does it mean death will not come to him until he marries twice. Once hes married twice, death can come anytime, whether hes 50, 60 or 90 years of age. Same with day of judgement. Judgement day is not to come until Jesus(as) comes.. now when he comes, it can be tomorrow, a year from now, century from now or 1000 years from now. That is not for us to know. Only thing was, judgement wont occur UNTIL he comes. Thats all.
g) it is taken literally. Your own belief contradicts it. You say a prophet is to be buried where he dies.
h) mawt comes before the word tawaffee in 6:61. Makes it absolutely clear that after mawt, tawaffee takes place, which is taking the soul to heaven. Remember , only 2 ways of Allah taking souls. Death and sleep. No other possibility is available for you as per Quran. You die, and thus your soul is taken by angels.. or when soul is taken by angels.. it is only if a person is dead or is sleeping. See it from both angles.
Allah does tawaffee. Angels are under Him. They obey the commandments of Allah. Angels dont do tawaffee without asking Allah. Death does tawaffee, sure.. and so does sleep. Both of these occasions, the body itself remains on the Earth. Whats the problem there?
